Wen Yi readily agreed, which surprised Wen's mother slightly. She had prepared many arguments, but now she had no chance to say them.
Wen finished the soup and said, "Mom, I want to rest."
Wen's mother snapped out of her daze and said, "Oh, okay, then you should rest. Don't overwork yourself. I'll prepare some clothes for you tomorrow."
"Thank you, Mom." Wen smiled gently.
Wen's mother stared in disbelief, then finally took the soup bowl and left Wen Yi's room, closing the door behind her.
Mr. Wen was standing in the corridor smoking, his expression quite serious. When he saw Mrs. Wen come out, he immediately put out his cigarette and went up to ask, "What did she say? Did she make a scene?"
"She agreed." Mother Wen looked at Father Wen and couldn't help but smile. "She seems to have come to her senses and has agreed to go see Second Master, which can be considered as agreeing to the marriage in place of another."
"She really agreed?" Mr. Wen also expressed great surprise. "But when Wen Ge came back, wasn't it about her sister..."
"She might have just been upset and provoked Wen Ge a little, but now that she's agreed, it means she's come to her senses and knows that she'll have to endure some hardship and marry in place of someone else. Once Wen Ge has established herself in the Gu family, she'll have her own good fortune."
"It's good if you can figure it out." Father Wen nodded.
"I'll go get her some clothes ready now," said Mrs. Wen as she left.
Inside the room.
Wen was leaning against the door, while her parents stood at the doorway. Wen heard their conversation clearly, and her heart sank into a deep chill.
Tomorrow?
A bitter smile appeared on her lips.
Wen thought to herself, after being obedient for so many years, she should do something to let her parents know that she is also a human being and not a victim.
...
The next day.
Early in the morning, Wen's mother lowered her dress and knocked on Wen Yi's door.
The dress was even more stunning than the one at the previous "Sword and Qin" press conference. It was a black halter dress with a very simple design, but it was precisely this simplicity that brought out the beauty of her figure.
"Give it a try," Wen's mother encouraged Wen Yi.
As long as Wen Yi agrees to marry in place of another, the entire Wen family will be loving mother and filial daughter.
Wen Yi went to change her clothes and let her hair, which had been tied up, fall loose. When she walked up to her mother, her mother was amazed by her beauty.
Wen Yi's beauty is the kind that isn't immediately obvious, but rather the kind that grows on you the more you look at her, and the better her overall demeanor becomes.
She was wearing a simple black slip dress, her skin was very fair, and her figure wasn't the slender, bony type, but it was still curvaceous and well-endowed.
"Take off your glasses, baby." Wen's mother gently stepped forward and took off Wen's glasses.
Wen Yi was a little dazed, remembering her mother calling her "baby".
Wen's mother often called Wen Ge and her younger brother "baby," showing them great affection and tenderness. But this was the first time she had called Wen Yi that, leaving Wen Yi feeling dazed. She even wondered if, if she obediently took Wen Ge's place in the marriage, she would become her mother's precious daughter.
How pitiful, having to resort to such methods to get the maternal love she's always longed for.
"Don't eat anything today. Eat properly tonight, okay?" Wen's mother touched Wen Yi's belly. If he eats, his belly will bulge out, which won't look good.
Wen nodded. "I know."
"You should get some rest. Wen Ge will come over later to help you with your makeup. Have fun tonight, okay?"
“I know, Mom,” Wen Yi replied obediently.
After looking around and finding nothing to say, Wen's mother left Wen Yi's room.
Wen Yi sat quietly in the chair. She took off her glasses, and her vision was a little blurry. Looking at herself in the mirror, she couldn't see clearly, but she felt very sad.
Wen Ge came in in the afternoon to do Wen Yi's makeup.
Both of them, Wen Yi had been hungry for half a day.
"Sister, you look so beautiful." Wen Ge couldn't help but praise her as soon as she came in. "I'm amazed."
As Wen Yi smiled, Wen Ge stepped forward and hugged her from behind. "Sister, I sincerely apologize to you. I was wrong before, and I won't do it again. I will definitely treat you well. I love you very much, sister."
Wen Ge has a sweet tongue; when she hugs Wen Yi and talks to her, she even acts coquettishly, which is irresistible to anyone.
Wen Yi patted Wen Ge's hand, "It's okay, you two sisters, it's all in the past."
"Sister, I will always remember how much I love you, and I will also remember how much you love me," Wen Ge said earnestly. "No matter what happens to me or you in the future, we will always be sisters who support each other. I will definitely take good care of you in the future."
The last line, spoken with emphasis, seemed like a promise to Wen Yi.
She is now sacrificing herself for Wen Ge, taking her place in the marriage at Yu Ting Yuan. In the future, once Wen Ge successfully marries into the Gu family, she will definitely take good care of Wen Yi.
Wen Yi really wanted to tell Wen Ge that even if she were to marry in place of Gu Zeyu, he might not actually marry her.
From initial indecisiveness and back-and-forth switching, to ultimately regretting whoever you choose, because you'll regret it anyway.
"Wen Ge, I'm going out for dinner tonight. Can you do me a favor?" Wen Yi suddenly said.
“Sure.” Wen Ge agreed without hesitation. “Sister, just tell me what you need, and I’ll help you.”
"I used to have a boyfriend, but now I'm getting married. Could you please bring a gift to him tonight?"
"Sister, when did you get a boyfriend?" Wen Ge asked with a surprised expression.
She sat down next to Wen Yi. She had never heard of Wen Yi having a boyfriend before, so this was quite sudden.
Wen smiled and said, "Because we met online, we rarely meet, and my family doesn't know."
"So this is why my sister has always refused to marry into the Royal Garden?" Wen Ge seemed to understand something. "Because she has someone she likes, so she doesn't want to marry anyone else."
"More or less."
Wen Ge reached out and grabbed Wen Yi's hand. "Don't worry, sister. I will definitely do my best to fulfill your request. I will personally go tonight to deliver this gift to you."
"Thank you."
Do I need to say anything?
"No need. Just show up and give him the item, and he'll understand."
“Okay, I understand, sister.” Wen Ge nodded, but couldn’t help but comfort Wen Yi, “Sister, don’t be too sad. Marrying into Yutingyuan was something the family agreed to, there was nothing we could do about it, but I believe that fate will take care of things, it’s not necessarily a bad thing.”
Wen Ge offered comforting words with great understanding, but she didn't mention that it was Wen Ge, not Wen Yi, who had initially agreed to marry into the Royal Garden.
Wen Yi didn't refute it. After all, she had already made up her mind about this matter, so there was no need to argue with Wen Ge at this moment.
"Sister, I'll help you with your makeup now." Wen Ge stood up to get down to business.
Wen Yi sat in her seat while Wen Ge did her makeup.
Perhaps because she was in a good mood, Wen Ge carefully gave Wen Yi a full makeover, making Wen Yi look completely different from her usual quiet and ordinary self.
Beautiful, alluring, and seductive.
Wen Yi left the Wen family wearing the black suspender dress her mother had given her and with makeup carefully done by Wen Ge.
Let them remember Wen Yi at her most beautiful!
